Smiling Opel

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 09:35 AM PDT

Steel Drake’s design for Opel (Buick in America) gives the brand a much-needed breath of fresh air. Called the Lancorte, it looks a bit like a cross between a CR-Z and an Eclipse… sporty but reserved for the older target customer. If its price point is as low as the brand’s other models, the coupe will be worth it to impress the neighbors for at least a moment. Favorite feature: those side dimples! Hit the jump to see what I mean…

Designer: Steel Drake

Oh, So Pure Air!

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 05:58 AM PDT

The APM-1211GH is a multi-functional air purifier with a system to remove fine dust, viruses and toxic gases. The humidification & dehumidification system uses a naturally evaporating humidification filter. Designed to look like a vase, the appliance blends into the home environment easily.

The wood-pattern control section is touch-sensitive and the LED lights under the control section are naturally shiny to display the operating function. Simple and functional!

Another Brick In The Wall

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 05:53 AM PDT

As our USB sticks keep getting smaller, chances of us losing them in our bags and backpacks keep getting higher. This inverse proportion can be curbed thanks to the unique Brick USB Stick Design. The pint-sized stick rests snugly in your smartphone's headphone jack. The design allows you the flexibility of carrying your USB without the bother of losing it, plus the dense pattern lets you know the storage capacity.

Designers: Hongshik Kim and Se-eun Kim

WIN A Nautica Swing Chair!

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 12:38 AM PDT

When I was growing up, I remember spending numerous hours in this cozy swing chair that was hooked up to the ceiling of my balcony. Many hours spent reading books, watching the sunset, lazing over a cuppa hot coffee on a gloomy rainy day! That swing chair was my go-to place, my solace. Well, you can have a swing-chair too; rather WIN one, right here, right now! The Nautica Swing Chair!

Wooden Bike Perfection

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 12:01 AM PDT

Beech plywood frames, solid seats and pinstriped tires give the WOOD.b series of street bikes a somewhat vintage feel but seamless joints, steel accents and a simple minimal aesthetic give the series away as modern designs of today. It is this perfect balance that makes them timeless and almost too pretty to ride!

Hidden Dialysis

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 12:01 AM PDT

The Purifier mobile peritoneal dialysis system aims to give patients a carefree approach to managing the illness which is often a time-consuming process and hindrance to everyday life. The flexible design is positioned on the user to mimic an operating kidney while the automated peristaltic pump system transports the dialysate through the body, eliminating the need for a heavy, cumbersome infusion stand. Discrete and comfortable, it allows patients to move freely with little thought to the device.
